It's a toss up with the 70d and T6s. The T6s is a nice unit but more people seem to prefer the 70d. Where I live I'd have to spend an extra $600 for the 70d over the T6s - not worth it in my opinion. I found a great price for the T6s. Tons of people have the 70d, not too many have the T6s

Which one are you leaning towards? So wither wait and get the 80d or get one now and choose the 70d or T6s. I think if you wait you'll get more test reviews on the 80d and you'll see if it's worth it or not, you might also see price drops for the other two cameras. But if you're thinking new you might not find any new 70d's in a few months.

Thanks for summing it up so nicely

For me it's about $300 to $550 premium for the 70D over the 760D (body only). When I compare them (purely on specs) I see more benefit from the 760 in almost every area, but that may be because I am used to the 500D, so I see an improvement.

The pricing I'm seeing for pre-orders for the 80D put it over $1000 more than the 760D, and a good $700 more than the 70D.

Given this, I'm leaning towards the 760D, but (as always) there is a little bit of doubt there

Is there a replacement for the 760D on the horizon?
